City of Cleveland Federally Funded Construction Projects

The Mayor’s Office of Equal Opportunity also oversees contracts funded with federal funds governed by the Davis-Bacon Act with the same type of submittals and expectations as the State’s requirements as listed in the previous section. Related publications appear below.

Required Jobsite Posters

The City of Cleveland recommends that posters be printed in color and laminated. Law requires that the bulletin board and/or posters are located in a prominent and readily accessible area where employees gather to start work on and/or during breaks. By law, posters need to be stored in a weatherproof, watertight location and remain there throughout the contract/project.

For Projects Not in a Fixed Location

Laminated posters should be displayed in a traditional “Open House” literature holder container. These may be adhered to poles, working vans, and/or trucks. All employees must be informed of poster location.

Electronic Submittal of Certified PayrollContractors are required to submit Certified Payrolls on a weekly basis online through LCPtracker. When a contractor is awarded a City project, the City will set up the project in the LCPtracker system, and provide the prime contractor with a log-in and password. In addition, subcontractors will be assigned log-ins and passwords.

This paperless submittal is not optional. Paper payrolls submitted to OEO will be returned, and the contractors will have to enter them into the online system to ensure payment of submitted invoices.

LCPtracker SystemThe LCPtracker system is a paperless, online system for entering certified payrolls. Rather than submitting paper Prevailing Wage forms (Affidavits of Prime Contractor, Statements of Compliance, Weekly Certified Payroll Spreadsheets, etc.), contractors will enter all payrolls and related information online. All project-specific wage rates & classifications will be online, and the contractor will choose specific rates and jobs from a menu.

Computer and Internet AccessThe contractor will need a computer and internet access for LCPtracker. For contractors without this ability, the prime contractor of each project will provide the computer and equipment necessary to submit payrolls electronically. Public computers are available at most public libraries. In addition, the Mayor’s Office of Equal Opportunity has a dedicated computer with internet access for contractors to use.

Training OpportunitiesThose interested in taking a LCPtracker class, are asked to contact the Mayor’s Office of Equal Opportunity at 216.664.4155 or via email. Free parking for class attendees is available to those parking in the building’s attached garage who bring a parking stub to class. In addition, training can be found online via tutorials made available when logging into the system.

To advance equal economic benefit for all Clevelanders by ensuring compliance with contractor goals and requirements, by providing development and support activity for target groups, and by overall advocacy, with a commitment to excellent public service.
